Presidential Fellows in Data Science Research Presentations

The 2017-18 Presidential Fellows in Data Science will present their research this Friday at the UVA Data Science Institute.

From comparisons of Soviet dissident writing and post-truth journalism to the creation of ethical algorithms to understanding the links between mental health and the mother-child microbiome, the fellows are undertaking a variety of research using data science tools to ask big questions with major implications.

12:30pm to 1:00pm

Ph.D. candidate in the School of Nursing and M.S. in Data Science candidate Caitlin Dreisbach and Ph.D candidate in the College of Arts & Sciences' Department of Psychology Caroline Kelsey will present research examining how the intestinal microbiome predicts levels of maternal internalizing symptoms and threat bias in mothers and their infants.
